The German covid hospitalization rate is the highest it's been since the start of the pandemic and ICU beds are 90% filled in some areas.

A new wave has started in Singapore with a new variant XBB, it has similar mutations to another new one BQ1.1 that has scientists worried and I posted about recently.
Damn Capt.,I'm scheduled for my Omicron shot Oct.15 along w/flu shot,and I feel I'm chasing it w/new variants you've mentioned,this will be shot #5 in the battle against Covid for me,my perception is that maybe 5-10% of pop. in Mass. is masking and we American's no longer seem to care or possess the attention span to deal w/long crises's which in IMHO doesn't present a rosy future sad to say,

Look into getting the Novavax covid vaccine.

“They have been the most discriminated against group that I’ve ever witnessed in my lifetime,”
Covid discriminates between the vaxxed and unvaxxed, there is a big fall wave coming with new and more slippery stains. I get the fourth boost tomorrow a bivalent vaccine. They are trying to leverage the FREEDUM shit, many young people were propagandized against Trudeau on social media, looking for covid stuff that supported their feelings, since their health wasn't at risk much and they were young horny and wanted to party.

4 Suspected cases of Ebola in Kampala Uganda, a city of 1.7 million with a international airport. This is the nightmare scenario unfolding according to scientists, it breaks out in small villages normally. This strain of ebola has killed more than half it's victims so far and the ebola vaccine is not effective with this variant.

Got the bivalent 4th boost today, not as good as the gringo version for the latest stains, but I suppose that will be for spring or summer. We are expecting a big fall wave as are most places and masks still slow it down, so the hospitals don't get overwhelmed, hopefully they will use more antiviral meds to deal with it. Masks are unpopular with large segments of society, not just America either. Politically and as far as a lot of public health aspects go, it's over, it's the hospitalization rate that will determine a lot of things locally. If it gets worse after the election the government might do something about it, though the republicans would oppose it, even though it's probably most of their supporters who are dying and getting fucked over by it. Many have been vaxxed and then mildly infected with new strains building their immunity further.

I think we will have a killer vaccine in a couple of years, one that might even deal with all coronavirus strains, even if it has to be annual and combined with a flu shot.
